Tolex and knobs, iirc?So how is it different than a regular Badlander? Being a non-Badlander TGF outlier, I am not up on the subtleties of different BL flavors but if you waited forever I assume its got some special thing going on.

Yeah it's all just cosmetics. But since we know knobs = toan, mine just sounds better. Or something.Tolex and knobs, iirc?
Did Mesa finally get Marshall derived/British-centric tones right with the Badlander??
Lord knows they have taken a shot at those with a number of different amps over the
years---none of which seemed to last that long.
Weren't the Stilletto, Stilletto Ace, Electra-Dyne, and Royal Atlantic all touted at one time as
the great Mesa alternative for British flavoured overdrive??

I think the stillettos, ED and RA all produce good tones, not "marshall killers" but good tones none the less...
British mode on my roadster is the only option I'd say qualifies as a turd tho
Brit mode on my Road King is a throw-away tone too IMO. I use channel 2 for cleans and I adore the Tweed mode on Channel 1. Channel 1 never leaves Tweed mode.

The ED is awesome. Heavy as f**k.
keep going...Having owned all those amps, the Electra Dyne is by far their best stab at it, for my preferences, although it is still very Mesa overall. The Dyne crunch channel is like a 70s JMP preamp welded to a Mark series Simul-Class power amp. Addictive JTM-like sag and touch responsiveness mixed with a massive Mesa 90W beast of a power amp.
